On the Minimum Quantity of Mobile Sensor Nodes for Full Coverage in Hybrid WSN by Monik Silva Sousa, João Viana da Fonseca Neto

“…A main challenge in deploying wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is determining the minimum quantity of sensor nodes required to fully cover the region of interest while avoiding coverage holes. This study proposes a method to compute the number of nodes needed to monitor a circular region and a distributed control strategy based on circular formations to move dynamic agents to their desired positions. …”
